This is particularly so in international business since it is mostly through negotiations that exporters and importers bridge their differences and reach a fair
17、 and 1 satisfactory deal. By presenting a more comprehensive negotiating package in a well planned and organized manner, exporters should be able to improve the effectiveness of their business discussions and 2 the profitability of their export operations. To avoid being confronted by costly demands
18、, an exporter should try to determine the buyer“s real interest in the product from the outset. This can be ascertained through appropriate questions but must also 3 research and other preparations before the negotiations. Only then can a suitable counter-proposal be presented. To achieve a 4 outcom
19、e from the negotiations, an exporter should 5 a plan of action beforehand, which addresses a few key issues. Experienced negotiators consider that as much as 80% of their overall time devoted to negotiations should go to such preparations. The 6 work should be aimed at obtaining relevant information
20、 on the target market and the buyers of the product. It should also include developing counter-proposals if 7 are raised on any of the exporter“s opening negotiating points. The preparations should thus involve 8 the negotiating strategy and tactics. In international marketing negotiations, it is ad
21、visable for small and medium-sized exporters not to limit their discussions to pricing issues. Although pricing is a key factor in any business 9 , exporters should give more attention to the full range of marketing factors. They should stress the strengths of their forms and products and match them
22、 with the 10 needs of the buyers. Once these issues have been covered, they can consider the question of price and are able to develop a profitable business.

23、Organised volunteering and work experience has long been a vital companion to university degree courses. Usually it is left to 1 to deduce the potential from a list of extracurricular adventures on a graduate“s resume, but now the University of Bristol has launched an award to formalise the achievem
24、ents of students who devote time to activities outside their courses. Bristol PLuS aims to boost students in an increasingly competitive job market by helping them acquire work and life skills alongside 2 qualifications. “Our students are a pretty active bunch, but we found that they didn“t 3 apprec
25、iate the value of what they did outside the lecture hall,“ says Jeff Goodman, director of careers and employability at the university. “Employers are much more demanding than they used to be. They used to look for potential and saw it as part of their job to 4 the value of an applicant“s skills. Now
26、 they want students to be able to explain why those skills are 5 to the job.“ Students who sign up for the award will be expected to complete 50 hours of work experience or voluntary work, attend four workshops on employability skills, take part in an intensive skills related activity and, crucially
27、, write a summary of the skills they have gained. 6 efforts will gain an Outstanding Achievement Award. Those who 7 best on the sports field can take the Sporting PLuS Award which fosters employer friendly sports accomplishments. The experience does not have to be formally organised. “We“re not just
28、 interested in easily identifiable skills,“ says Goodman. “For instance, one student took the lead in dealing with a difficult landlord and so 8 negotiation skills. We try to make the experience relevant to individual lives.“ Goodman hopes the 9 will enable active students to fill in any gaps in the
29、ir experience and encourage their less active 10 to take up activities outside their academic area of work.

30、ty ReportAmerican universities are accepting more minorities than ever. Graduating them is another matter. ABarry Mills, the president of Bowdoin College, was justifiably proud of Bowdoin“s efforts to recruit minority students. Since 2003 the small, elite liberal arts school in Brunswick, Maine, has
31、 boosted the proportion of so-called under-represented minority students in entering freshman classes from 8% to 13%. “It is our responsibility to reach out and attract students to come to our kinds of places,“ he told a NEWSWEEK reporter. But Bowdoin has not done quite as well when it comes to actu
32、ally graduating minorities. While 9 out of 10 white students routinely get their diplomas within six years, only 7 out of 10 black students made it to graduation day in several recent classes. B“If you look at who enters college, it now looks like America,“ says Hilary Pennington, director of postse
33、condary programs for the Bill Melinda Gates Foundation, which has closely studied enrollment patterns in higher education. “But if you look at who walks across the stage for a diploma, it“s still largely the white, upper-income population.“ CThe United States once had the highest graduation rate of
34、any nation. Now it stands 10th. For the first time in American history, there is the risk that the rising generation will be less well educated than the previous one. The graduation rate among 25-to 34-year-olds is no better than the rate for the 55-to 64-year-olds who were going to college more tha
35、n 30 years ago. DStudies show that more and more poor and non-white students want to graduate from collegebut their graduation rates fall far short of their dreams. The graduation rates for blacks, Latinos, and Native Americans lag far behind the graduation rates for whites and Asians. As the minori
36、ty population grows in the United States, low college graduation rates become a threat to national prosperity. EThe problem is pronounced at public universities. In 2007 the University of Wisconsin-Madisonone of the top five or so prestigious public universitiesgraduated 81% of its white students wi
37、thin six years, but only 56% of its blacks. At less-selective state schools, the numbers get worse. During the same time frame, the University of Northern Iowa graduated 67% of its white students, but only 39% of its blacks. Community colleges have low graduation rates generallybut rock-bottom rates
38、 for minorities. A recent review of California community colleges found that while a third of the Asian students picked up their degrees, only 15% of African-Americans did so as well. FPrivate colleges and universities generally do better, partly because they offer smaller classes and more personal
39、attention. But when it comes to a significant graduation gap, Bowdoin has company. Nearby Colby College logged an 18-point difference between white and black graduates in 2007 and 25 points in 2006. Middlebury College in Vermont, another top school, had a 19-point gap in 2007 and a 22-point gap in 2
40、006. The most selective private schoolsHarvard, Yale, and Princetonshow almost no gap between black and white graduation rates. But that may have more to do with their ability to select the best students. According to data gathered by Harvard Law School professor Lani Guinier, the most selective sch
41、ools are more likely to choose blacks who have at least one immigrant parent from Africa or the Caribbean than black students who are descendants of American slaves. G“Higher education has been able to duck this issue for years, particularly the more selective schools, by saying the responsibility i
42、s on the individual student,“ says Pennington of the Gates Foundation. “If they fall, it“s their fault.“ Some critics blame affirmative actionstudents admitted with lower test scores and grades from shaky high schools often struggle at elite schools. But a bigger problem may be that poor high school
43、s often send their students to colleges for which they are “undermatched“: they could get into more elite, richer schools, but instead go to community colleges and low-rated state schools that lack the resources to help them. HSome schools out for profit cynically increase tuitions and count on stud
44、ent loans and federal aid to foot the billknowing full well that the students won“t make it. “The school keeps the money, but the kid leaves with loads of debt and no degree and no ability to get a better job. Colleges are not holding up their end,“ says Amy Wilkins of the Education Trust. IA colleg
45、e education is getting ever more expensive. Since 1982 tuitions have been rising at roughly twice the rate of inflation. In 2008 the net cost of attending a four-year public universityafter financial aidequaled 28% of median (中间的) family income, while a four-year private university cost 76% of media
46、n family income. More and more scholarships are based on merit, not need. Poorer students are not always the best informed consumers. Often they wind up deeply in debt or simply unable to pay after a year or two and must drop out. JThere once was a time when universities took pride in their dropout
47、rates. Professors would begin the year by saying, “Look to the right and look to the left. One of you is not going to be here by the end of the year.“ But such a Darwinian spirit is beginning to give way as at least a few colleges face up to the graduation gap. KAt the University of Wisconsin-Madiso
48、n, the gap has been roughly halved over the last three years. The university has pouredresources into peer counseling to help students from inner-city schools adjust to the rigor (严格要求) and faster pace of a university classroomand also to help minority students overcome the stereotype that they are less qualified. Wisconsin has a “laserlike focus“ on building up student skills in the first three months, according to vice provost (教务长) Damon Williams. LState and federal governments could sharpen that focus everywhere by broadly publishing minority graduation rates. For years private col
